Community Support Policy<br />
In <strong>2010</strong> was created a policy that establishes the principles and<br />
rules for granting sponsorships, donations and charity contributions,<br />
which was then published by means of a service instruction.<br />
According to this policy, all support proposals addressed to <strong>Efacec</strong><br />
are analyzed in accordance with objective criteria.<br />

on the following criteria:<br />

geographical hub;<br />

• Credibility of the receiving institution;<br />
• Soundness of the presented request/proposal.<br />
